Prevent Policy
linking anti-fracking activists with extremists
Spinwatch reported in December 2016 that the school had included ‘anti-fracking’ among the list of types of extremism that could potentially draw children into ‘terrorism’.[2] The school’s ‘Safeguarding Training – Prevent strategy’ presentation which is designed to ‘protect children from the risk of radicalisation’ includes anti-fracking groups alongside known threats such as ‘ISIL’ and the ‘ extreme right wing’ English Defence League.
